How To Make Healthy Mango Biscuits (Cookies)
For step by step instructions watch video
Step 1: Beat Butter
Take unsalted butter in a mixing bowl and beat it for a few minutes until it becomes light and fluffy. This step helps in making the biscuits soft inside and crisp outside.
Step 2: Add Desi Khand
Add desi khand and whisk again until the mixture turns creamy and well combined.
Step 3: Add Wet Ingredients
Mix in milk powder, fresh mango puree, and custard powder. Whisk everything properly until the mixture becomes smooth and fluffy. The mango puree will add natural sweetness and flavour.
Step 4: Add Dry Ingredients
Add wheat flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix lightly to form a soft dough. Mix everything gently to form a soft dough. Avoid overmixing, as it can make biscuits hard. If the dough feels dry, add 1 tablespoon extra mango puree. The dough should be soft but not sticky.
Step 5: Shape the Biscuits
Fit a biscuit mould into the chakli maker. Grease lightly with oil and fill with dough.
Press biscuits directly onto a parchment-lined baking tray. You can make any shape or size as per your preference.
Step 6: Bake
Preheat the oven and bake the biscuits at 180°C for 18–20 minutes or until they turn slightly golden and crisp.
Step 7: Cool & Store
Once baked, let the biscuits cool completely. This step is important because they become crisp only after cooling. Store them in an airtight contaner. These biscuits stay fresh for 2–3 weeks.
Storage Tips
- Store the biscuits in an airtight container
- Keep them at room temperature
- They stay fresh and crispy for 2–3 weeks
